Gap paint splatter jeans

Jeans: Gap real straight ( bought a size up to be more like a slim boyfriend) // Bag: Vintage Chloe from E-bay // Shirt: J. Crew (old) // Blazer: Target (old) // Pumps: H&M // Sunglasses: Westward Leaning (Children of California model) // Earrings: J. Crew Factory

                           

I am a major fan of wearing distressed jeans and hope this style stays in for a while to come. I think I love this style so much because I tend to lean toward being "overdressed" and find distressed denim can up the casual factor of any look. I had been wanting a pair of paint splattered jeans but couldn't find ones that had just the right amount of distressing. I found these at my local Gap and they were on sale for $29.95! Not sure why but they are not on sale on-line.

Overall, this look is pretty much my date night or family dinner uniform: distressed jeans, a blouse or shirt, blazer and heels. I am going to try to focus more on this blog to feature items most of us already have in our closets and how they can work for us vs. trying to promote new items. I love fashion blogs but for most of us it is just not realistic to be buying new things all the time. I think a closet that works for you means NOT having to buy new things all the time but supplement a good foundation with a few trends or pieces to have the old feel fresh. The jeans of this look are new, but all the other items are in pretty regular rotation. That being said - these Westward Leaning sunglasses are on sale and they almost NEVER go on sale. I love mine and wear them all the time since they are so versatile!

What is your dinner out uniform?
